 Montgomery Wards have employed a new worker. Roger Keith Is demon- strating the restful qualities of Sleep-Tite mattresses in their display window. Whoooooooosh! There goes Bruce Kohler testing his new high-powered hotrod. He is entering the Races again this year for the 8th time, with high hopes. He has been remodeling Model A?s into hotrods. He's now known as the dare-devil of modern time. Nancy Lueptow seems to have accomplished her life ambition as a sec- retary. I see her sitting on her boss1 lap. (Learning the business, Nancy?) Well, at least one out of our class got to Hollywood. Joyce Reiter is now a dress designer in movieland. She designs the clothes for the leading ladies in the Tarzan pictures. Bernadine Ryan is the head of the Nifty-Difty Chair Company. This company specializes in the manufacturing of chairs for short people. (She never could keep her feet on the floor!) Suddenly the scene changes to Spain, where I see one of America1s top diplomats talking to a Spaniard. It seems he would like to take back as a souvenir the Rock of Gibraltor. He looks very familiar. Why, it's Jack Schneider. His Spanish doesn't seem to be doing him much good right now. Who's this getting off an airplane with the Aga Kahn? 'Why, it's Jean Schultz. Can it be that she's the millionaire's private secretary? Oh, no, she's a stewardess with Commercial Airlines. Harry James and Donna Smith are featured at the Copa Cabanna Club. Harry, of course, gives out with The Flight of the Bumble Bee on the trumpet while Donna accompanies him on the clarinet. Shirley Smith has signed up as a drummer for Goody Benraan. They are now touring the States and will soon be featured at the grand opening of the magnificent Blue Room on Park Lake Beach. The sweet strains from a caliope come to my ears, along with Step right up, folks, and see the Eighth wonder of the world. It is the noises of the big-top and as I draw closer I see the circus barker is none other than Andrew Tararainga. I knew he'd get places with that voice. Shirley Ullrich is now owner of the noted Ritz Apparel Shoppe in Pardeeville, the exclusive store for exclusive women. She also sells men's hats on the side. Rose Mary Wendlick surely must be in the dough as I see her driving a different car every day. As I look closer I see a Cadillac salesroom. I understand she owns the business, so tries out each new car. Now you have a vague picture of what the class of '52 is doing 10 years after graduation. I enjoyed this short visit at the Dells, but must be leaving, as my furlough will soon be up and I must get, back to ray government job in Hawaii.

GIgAA Pnofdtecy I Virginia Breneman, happened to be at Wisconsin Dells the other day and decided to see the Indian Ceremony. In front of the campfire whom should I see but my old classmate, Chief Morris (Pocohantas) Van Swol. He was Jumpin' and Jivin' and whoopin' and wa-hooin». Yes, he's a medicine man now, full of wierd noises, strictly a left-over from high school daze. So I rushed up to him to see if I could find out about our beloved classmates. Morris gladly consented to go into trances and tell me about the class of 52--in '62. So now I'll tell it to you exactly the way Chief Morris told me. I can't see too well yet, but it looks like stripes--no—it must be bars—yes, it is, and who's that behind them? Why, it's Merwin Allen. He must have been caught for impersonating or else because of the current meat shortage. (Professional ham, you know.) Speaking of meat, I see a large sign advertising the Scalp U Beauty Lodge with Janis Atkinson as head butcher. (Guess I'll let my hair grow.) Jo-Ellen Baillies seems to have gotten very popular, as she is booked up for every night in the week. Don't jump to conclusions, as she only operates the local baby sitting service. Each night her home is filled with the neighbors' little darlings. Listen, is that a fire siren I hear? Oh, pardon me, it's Eli and his Blasting Five, alias Lloyd Bernander. Their theme song is I'm For- ever Blowing Loudly. Arthur Murray's most recent competitor is none other than Kenny Bortz. He knows all the latest steps—in dancing, that is. I understand he keeps the women on their toes, too. What's this? Looks like a heated argument. Let's find out what it's all about. Why, it's Ed Brandsma, State Game Warden, talking to someone who has just shot a doe in buck season. Don't be too hard on him, Ed, Re- member, you did quite a bit of hunting in your school days. (Whoops, I mean weekends.) All New York was knocked for a loop when one of its leading social- ites, Lorraine Griepentrog came out with a new hair-do which resembles the Bob of '29. I wonder who that is saying Return--return--return--return and stop. Phyllis Gustrowsky, Pardeeville's new commercial teacher must be giving her typing students a carriage return drill. The famous Mayo Clinic comes into view, with Nurse Billie Jean Haskin rushing into room 308. It seems there's a famous movie star in that room who enjoys Billie's company. It couldn't be the other way around, could it? My, but that man has a lot of pets. I can't quite see who it is—ch, yes, it's Tom Hill. Oh, I guess that's the game farm where Tom is manager. The little black and white animal that's trying to make friends with Tom isn't succeeding very fast. I see the Lonely Hearts Association has a new president. Yes, Sally Kearns is willingly giving her time and effort to help people find their ideal mate. 14 Page Sponsored By BRENEMAN ELECTRIC SERVICE Harry Breneman, Prop. Phone 37R7--Cambria, Wisconsin
